ClickToPlugin can replace every “embed”, “object”, and “applet” element on a web page by a placeholder element during page-loading. The user can load the embedded content manually by clicking on this placeholder. The type of content that ClickToPlugin blocks can be specified in the settings. Right-clicking on the placeholder reveals the usual contextual menu with one added item, ‘Hide Plugin’, which effectively removes the HTML element from the webpage. This is useful for getting rid of overlays that block access to page content. Additional contextual menu items for adding a page or source to the whitelist and unlocking all Flash elements on the page can be enabled in the settings.
